Answer:

The original number is 96.875

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the original number using the Direct Rule of Three, this way:

       Percentage          Number

              100                       x

               96                       93

***********************************************

96x = 93 * 100

96x = 9,300

x = 9,300/96

x = 96.875

The original number is 96.875
